Abstract :
Summary form only given. The trend of Industry 4.0 has attracted a lot of attention in the world. It aims to create a highly connected, smart and flexible production environment characterized by introducing the methods of self-optimization, self-configuration, self-diagnosis, cognition and intelligent support of workers in their increasingly complex work. Taiwan government also initiates a national Productivity 4.0 project to raise the operational efficiency of the value chains in industry, commerce and agriculture. Productivity 4.0 will develop several multidisciplinary technologies which integrate the Cyber-Physical Systems, Internet of Things, Big Data Analytics and Internet of Services together, and apply these technologies into the fields of Smart Factor, Omni-channel Service and Smart Agriculture. This talk will first introduce the goals and scope of Productivity 4.0 in Taiwan, and then discuss the key technologies and crucial success factors for this project. Finally, the intelligent computing technologies related to Productivity 4.0, such as the semantic sharing technology, autonomic computing, participatory sensing, and situation cognition, will be surveyed.
